Cheat codes
First, you need to set up your SELECT key. If you are playing with keyboard, please open:
- “%LOCALAPPDATA%\Kao – Round 2\key.ini”
in notepad and locate option KF_R1_key. By default it should be set to:
- KF_R1_key = 210
which is a Direct Input code for INSERT key (“DIK_INSERT”).
Then, you want to pause the game. On main menu, hold down your SELECT button and then press listed keys in order. You will hear a sound if you entered your cheat code correctly.
